1990 Map of White Chief Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Yosemite National Park and the Sierra National Forest converge on this 1990 provisional survey, capturing the high-elevation transition between protected wilderness and managed forest lands. The landscape is defined by its seasonal meadows and granite landmarks, including White Chief Mountain and the prominent Fresno Dome. These meadows, such as Soquel Meadow, Goat Meadow, and Boggy Meadow, provided essential water and grazing in an area otherwise dominated by steep timbered slopes. Evidence of land use is visible at the Soquel Meadow Ranch and a Quarry near the Mariposa and Madera county line. The map detail highlights a network of forest camps like Nelder Grove Campground and Texas Flat Group Campground, alongside natural features like Corlieu Falls on Lewis Fork, which illustrate the region's late 20th-century character as a site for both resource management and recreational escape.
